2. Many camera phones are 2 and more megapixel.
Videos look to be non-1080HD as http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006NT43IW/ref=asc_df_B006NT43IW2862848?smid=A3H89ADJHTH9SN&linkCode=asn&creative=395129&creativeASIN=B006NT43IW&tag=cnet_mp-3710-20 points out a 1.5 megapixel sensor.
It might be OK for outdoor daytime use.

Up until recently, almost all of my experience with cameras has been with the cameras on my cellphone. About two weeks ago, I purchased the JVC GZ-E200. I haven't had much time to use it until recently, but I have noticed that every picture I take seems either blurry or otherwise imperfect. I have taken perhaps a hundred pictures in various lighting and with various resolutions/ settings. Not one picture looks nearly as good as pictures taken from any camera phone I have had in the past few years (yes, I focus before taking a shot). Videos have the same problem for me. Normally I would just return the item to Amazon and get a replacement, but as I know essentially nothing about digital cameras, I thought it might be a good idea to come here for suggestions.
This is an example of the average picture taken with the camera.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
